Hey there - anyone know of a better tool to manage tags than the AWS console?
Terraform, cloudformation, boto
This is more of a strategic thing I guess, you need buy-in across the org
Agreed - buy in is not the issue, but tooling and visibility are right now.
A couple of questions - what tools are your teams using to manage your infrastructure, and what purpose are you using tags for (compliance, cost management?)
If teams are using a range of technologies, one approach to drive adoption is to (a) define your standard, (b) roll out something like https://cloudcustodian.io/ to flag un-tagged resources (and eventually stop or remove them if they’re not fixed in time) - https://cloudcustodian.io/docs/quickstart/policyStructure.html
